A Dip in Time
By Moonwolf
This story is in an unexplored timeline of the Sailor Moon universe, and such the characters may seem a tad bit different. But bear with me and read the story. This is just a rough draft that I am posting. No mean flames accepted now or ever. Also I don't own Sailor Moon or any of the characters of anything like. I simply own the this story.
A figure dressed in a sailor outfit stood in the fog and watched the patterns swirl in her large
mirror. A critical moment was about to occur, one that to proceed without her help until just the
right moment.
Usagi was enjoying a relaxing day at the local mall, with her brother Shingo. The two
siblings had matured over the years, each coming to terms with their relationship and showing
there love for each other. As Shingo was walking by the food court on the upper level, a force of
five youmas appeared in the lower level sitting area. The youmas quickly fanned out, and started
to attack anyone and everyone in sight. The attack of the youma was still a shock to people, but
most people were able to at least attempt an escape. The bodies of dozens started to fill the
ground, as the youmas pressed the attack. Unknown to them, a young girl or young lady was
about to drop in on them.
Youma thought Usagi as she watched them materialize and began the vicious attack. She
realized they would be safe for a few moments, her thoughts ran the gambit from Sammy to
people finding out her secret identity. But the main thought was the safety of Sammy and those
who could not fight back. So really the decision had been made for her, it just took her a moment
to come to that decision. Sammy, I want you to take this communicator, and run towards the car.
When you reach the car, press this button, and whomever answers give them the location and tell
me, The Moon is Attacking. They will know what it means. Said Usagi. Sammy simply looked at
her dumbfounded for a second, until a second stronger prompt got him going without even
thinking. Later he would realize that, the leader of the senshi, Sailor Moon, had given the order. As
Sammy ran down the aisles towards the garage area, a large gray and purple body intercepted him,
Sammy looked up to see a large spike coming towards his stomach area.
Usagi had made the decision and without a second thought, saw to Shingo's safety. She
also knew that she would not have time to call for help, so she gave Shingo that responsibility. As
she finally got Shingo moving, she turned to face the rapidly shrinking number of people on the
second level, and pulled her locket from her chest. This would end Usagi Tsukino forever, from
now on, only Sailor Moon would exist in her place. But this sacrifice was a cost she would pay to
see everyone safe. Then the next most horrible thing happened, A youma had leapt into the path of
Shingo and was preparing to impale him. This could not be allowed to happen, so without another
thought, a closed fist was raised and "Moon Strike" was uttered. A solid white beam of energy
leapt from her closed fist, and struck the youma directly in the chest. A rather large hole was left in
the place of his vital organs. As the youma looked down and saw his wound, he still had enough
energy to kill this one last human, but that thought never reached anything more than a thought as a
pair of boots slammed into his body. The youma was knocked back by the blow, Usagi quickly
raised her fist and vaporized the youma.
Shingo was trying to think of a way out of this problem, but nothing was coming to his
mind, plus his feet were just stuck to the ground in fear. He heard a yell, then felt a very hot
something pass by his head. Then the youma had a rather large smoking hole in his chest; he
looked back to see his sister, with a fist raised. As his mind slowly came back, he saw the youma
moving out of the corner of his eye, but he also saw something else moving towards him. It
appeared to be his sister, but what was going on? Then all of sudden another sensation of heat,
and the youma was ashes on the mall floor. The strangest thing was his sister, with her fist pointed
at the section of ashes. Then there's that voice again, and he was moving towards the car again.
With her brother safe, Usagi turned to face the lower court, and with a yell of Moon Prism
Power, a blinding bright light was seen, and then a new player had entered this little game of life
and death. Sailor Moon now stood were Usagi had only seconds before, with her wings held high
and glittering glaive, Sailor Moon leapt over the balcony and made her proper introductions to the
remaining youma. People that had witnessed the display of power by that young girl to protect her
brother, and then seeing Sailor Moon standing in her place, made the connection. That young girl
was Sailor Moon, and if the legends and stories were true, then the youma were in deep trouble.
Because she was a force to be reckoned with.
Shingo ran like the wind, moving around the shell-shocked and confused people. Still
following that voice's order to reach the car and to call for help. He ran past police officers that
were trying to evacuate people, and trying to form a group to engage the youma. As he reached
the car, he quickly pulled his keys out and got in. Ducking into the front seat floorboards, he
pressed a small button on this strange device, Not quite knowing what to expect, he was quite
shocked to see Ami's face appear on the screen. Shingo, what are you doing with Usagi's
communicator? Shingo still being shocked and now add confused, did what the voice told him to
do, The Moon is Attacking at Mall. With that said, the look on Ami's face went from curiosity to
concern, with a quick phrase, I understand, you stay hidden. Ami not even bothering to close the
channel hit the all call. With the appearance of the rest of the senshi, Ami quickly relayed the
message. Venus as second in command, took charge. All senshi teleport to the mall and assist
Sailor Moon. With that said, the channels closed as each senshi rushed to a place to henshin and
teleport. Ami realizing that Shingo had seen and heard the entire thing said we would help her, do
not you worry. Just stay hidden, we will come for you. With that the channel closed and Ami
rushed to her princess and friend's aid. As Shingo lay in the floorboards, his mind slowly began to
connect the dots. Here was his sister; the supposedly ditzy girl was Sailor Moon.
The other four senshi quickly made excuses and left their homes and jobs, each one quickly
transforming and then teleporting. Jupiter could not find any private area to transform, so with a
quick duck into a alcove of a building, the transformation took place, leaving a startled couple
who has caught the tail end of the transformation, Jupiter quickly turned and took off running
hoping to find a quite area to teleport, since the teleportation caused a local disturbance. She was
quick to determine that no should area existed, so with a quick look, she turned crossed a road to
a bridge and with a quick leap was airborne and over the side of the bridge. As she fell, she calmly
performed the teleportation spell and was gone. The crowd not really quite sure what they saw,
went on their ways. Each shaking there heads at the display of light and the girl jumping.
Sailor Moon landed with her glaive in attack position, since the youma had not seen her yet.
She decided to announce herself, as she slashed a youma in half. The other remaining youma
heard the scream of their own kind, each turning to look. Each one of the youma, realized that
their deaths were at hand. But to die like a coward was unthinkable, so each turned and attacked.
Sailor Moon calmly stood her ground, with glaive raised, she entered into combat. The three
remaining youma fought well, but their attacks were easily countered by Sailor Moon, and when
she struck it was fast and accurate. The energy blasts were without match and no shielding was
able to stop the blasts of energy. The three youma were quickly turned into ash. Sailor Moon felt
the entrance of the four senshi as they teleported into the mall. The four senshi were quick to join
with her, and started the process of caring for the wounded and making sure no one had been
tainted by the power of the negaverse.
The four senshi had coordinated their teleport, to bring them together at the same point in
the mall. As a group they entered the seating area, to find Sailor Moon standing over three piles of
ash. Hey, how about helping me check the wounded and see what we can do for them. Where are
the other youma asked Mercury? I have killed all the youma; they appeared to be stronger than
they really were. So each of the sailor senshi took an area, and started to help the wounded. As it
became clear that the battle was over, the police in riot gear entered the building. As they entered,
they found small pockets of people that had been hiding, but also found people making a dash for
outside, who quickly told of the battle, and then were escorted outside for medical aid. The police
entry team found the senshi helping people to their feet, and no youma. Mercury, who had been
scanning the area, knew of their approach long before and had warned the senshi. So surprising a
senshi did not hurt the police. Sailor moon leapt to the second floor gave a short report to the
captain, and then ordered the other senshi who had done everything they could, to leave the rest to
the police. The senshi quickly obeyed the orders, and with a flash of light, the senshi teleported
out of the area. Sailor Moon had redirected her teleport to near her car and hopefully were Shingo
was hidden. The other senshi were going back to what they were doing.
Sailor Moon appeared behind a column of the garage and quickly de-henshined. As Usagi
stepped out from behind the column and calmly walked to her car. As she unlocked the door, and
got in, a very scared and worried Shingo leapt at her. With tears in his eyes, he asked about her
being Sailor Moon and a thousand other questions. Usagi calmly explained to him, her secret and
those of the senshi, told him her real life story and at the end of the story, a now much calmer
Shingo swore to keep the secret. The surveillance cameras in the store and malls were found to
have suffered damage during the attack, although they played perfectly up to the attack and after.
But nothing was ever seen of Usagi's transformation, and the people that witnessed it, simply
never remembered it. Usagi would be found out several years later, during a large event.
The figure of Sailor Pluto had corrected the disturbance in Usagi's timeline; the timeline
would play as she had seen. Usagi would become Queen and everyone would find out that she
was Sailor Moon. Sailor Pluto continued to watch the threads of time continue to build. Waiting
for the next moment to act.
The End
